This week was 52 miles of running, 1500 yards of swimming and 9 "miles" of pool-running -- training log is here.
Raced the DC Half as my tune-up for Chicago. I thought I'd run about 1:32, but ran 1:34. I'm not that upset about it, because the weather ended up being warmer than forecast and it seemed like most people were a bit off of what they thought their fitness was. I got a good hard effort in, and that's the most important thing. I think I can run around 3:15 at Chicago if we get good weather (which admittedly is a big if).
Dailies:
Monday: 8 miles very easy (10:16) plus drills/strides. Foam rolling at night.
Tuesday: 9 miles, including a track workout of 6x800 in 3:28, 3:25, 3:19, 3:15, 3:14, 3:11; with 2:3x-3:0x recoveries. Followed with leg strengthwork and 500 yards recovery swimming. Foam rolling in evening.
Wednesday: 8 miles very easy (9:27) plus drills and strides and streaming yoga. Foam rolling in evening.
Thursday: 9 "miles" pool-running and upper body weights/core. Foam rolling in evening
Friday: 7 miles, including a 1600 in 6:54. Followed with injury prevention work and 500 yards recovery swimming. Foam rolling at night
Saturday: 2 miles very easy (9:40) and foam rolling.
Sunday: 3.5 mile warm-up, and then a half-marathon in 1:34:05. 1.5 mile very easy back to car after. Foam rolling at night.
